...ballroom of Geneva's Inter-Continental Hotel, the ministers last week quickly agreed to cut production. But then they wrangled for 2% days over how to divide up the cutback. That renewed oil industry doubts about OPEC's ability to live up to its decrees. During a cordial but "extremely frank" meeting, as one participant described it, ministers from Iran, Venezuela and Algeria lambasted their Nigerian colleague for helping to set off the crisis. Citing Nigeria's dire economic woes, Oil Minister Tarn David-West rebuffed pressure to restore his country's petroleum price...
...Catholic teaching which are not true." He did not immediately explain just what Ferraro had said or when she had said it. Puzzled and privately seething, the candidate tried to reach O'Connor between campaign appearances. She finally did so from Indianapolis. In what she described as a "cordial, direct and helpful" 35-minute telephone conversation, she politely asked the Archbishop what "mischaracterization" of the church position he had in mind.

An obscure and special soul lies behind the reflecting towers and the crape myrtles and the still...
Rumania's show of independence from Moscow was nothing new. While maintaining tight control over internal critics, President Nicolae Ceauşescu has a history of quietly differing with Moscow on foreign policy issues. He has maintained cordial ties with Peking, kept an embassy in Israel after Moscow broke relations with that country in 1967, and refused to let his troops join in the 1968 Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia. The decision to send a team to Los Angeles had direct political benefits for Ceauşescu. Government broadcasters boasted that victorious Rumanians had "dedicated" their victories to their President...
